I can understand how precious those little fingerprints are. The same happened to me when my twin grandsons were just learning to walk and they both stood up at my patio door and left small hand prints on my window. I couldn't bear to wash them and left them there for a long time. I appreciated so much these prints that they left me after they went home.

How nice that you found that rug at this time. Happy Hooking. Hugs, JB

I grinned when I read the part about the hand prints as I still have them on my windows from my little grands' last visit. :)Such lovely photos and the post is too. I love the simple pleasures of life also. What a pretty project you have there. I guess I could write this morning I love that I can awaken without an alarm telling me it's time to get up, the first cup of coffee as I watch the daylight emerge from the darkness, sitting on the deck and hearing the birds chirp and sing, among so many other wonderful joys of life. I DO love the simple life.

i love the hand prints on the window! its so nice to see the little things in life, keeps us grounded! still cool up here but the back yard in calling me.. glad david is doing well! thinking of you and enjoy your day!

I love the fingerprints too...that's my favorite!! Love your views too and New England is my favorite part of the country. Lucky you!! The rug looks like it will be a cheerful note on a stressful year. I hope mine ends as well.

Cathy ~I love that all is going so well with David!!! And that Miss Baby is cute as a button. It seems like just yesterday you were fretting over what she should call you and hubby. How time flies!Hugs :)Lauren
